Hope you all had a good night, we had friends over with their kids but us adults were getting tired so we changed the clocks at 1030 and celebrated at 11pm haha

2013 was a great year in my life, not just for painting; I changed jobs and we got the girls to sleep till 5.30am... believe me that's a lie in in our house!

On the painting front I achieved my goals in ending the year paintless, I moved my Darklands Drunes and my Silvermoons to 2014 as that's when the majority of the models comes out. A massive haul of over 500 models painted makes me proud, and it looks like it will be another big one this year with commissions and my own kickstarter goodies coming in too.

This bad boy completes my current line up of Cult models, I have a few more on order but may well have to go "Full Faction" like I have with the Ito as I really like this range and they suit my painting style to a tee!

No that the Covenant stuff is out the way I can try and finish the last of my unpainted models before the year is out. First up is Kato, The Puppet Master for my growing Cult of Yurei force for Bushido:

A big post for today, the six large capital ships of the fleet have are now finished, and with that so is this stage of the project:

I mentioned that this stage is complete... our club will be undertaking a dystopian wars campaign some point in the new year and Darren has already asked to book in a substantial land force to be painted up :-D﻿

As much as I want to keep painting my Cult force for Bushido, I really have to crack on with this job and get it done for next week. Its 69 ships (Inc 26 tokens!), I want to bust out half of it before I can do the last 3 Cult models at least.

Corvettes

Tiny Flyers

﻿

These are done to the same scheme and standard as my old CoA fleet, they are add ons to it so must be as close as possible to the originals.﻿

This is one of the basic zombies for the Cult forces, pretty rubbish at fighting and slow as hell, but with a couple of the other Cult models like Kato and Gengo buffing them up they become unkillable tarpit monsters, capable of delaying and wearing down even the mightiest samurai!﻿

Araka is a Kairai Oni, a zombie raised by Kato to fight for the Cult! He is one of the few beatsticks in the faction and really stands out on the table, especially against his brother Oni when fighting a Savage Wave force.

Next up will be some of the human Kairai, they are great sculpts and very quick to get done haha﻿

More Bushido today! I have begun to build up a Cult of Yurei force as my 5th faction, and these are the first pieces painted up over the course of the day:

Gengo

Kato's Mannequin

﻿

Taka & Wrath

In addition to these chaps I have the starter set and Araka the Oni, I have these in varing states of preparation but will hopefully be completed tomorrow as I have that dystopian wars commission to crack on with.﻿

That's the back of the project broken now, just the mountain warriors and the heroes to go. These are all undercoated, and will hopefully be black washed this evening.

Its the Bunkermitzu Tournament tomorrow at the club, our first Bushido event! We have 12 players coming along for it and a guest appearance from Toby (GCTs Master T!) to hand out some prizes and hold a QnA so expect a report on that early next week.

Commission wise there is the last of this Confrontation work to finish and two more booked in; a large Covenant of Antarctica fleet for DW and a massive Ancient Celts project that I am undertaking jointly with Quantum Studios!﻿
